A little off-topic but if you want to give silent cinema a go try Abel Gance's Napoleon. It is a 5 hour epic and incredible technical achievement. Some of the tricks in its bag (like the 3 screen finale) haven't ever been attempted since (as far as I know). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6504eRh5h6M |

The criterion collection version is great and watch it with Richard Einhorn's Voices of Light, especially if it's your first time.
It's one of the more high profile silent films but with good reason. If you want to try something different with friends but don't want them to fall asleep I've had good success with this film.
